- The problem
- Navistar is recalling certain model year 2006 through 2009, and 2012 IC CE school buses and certain model year 2006 through 2009, and 2011 through 2013 IC RE school buses manufactured from October 6, 2005, through April 18, 2012, and equipped with C. E. White Inc. brand flip seats.
- The risk
- When a flip seat is installed in front of another passenger seat, it is possible for the occupant of the rearward passenger seat to insert their toes and/or foot into the lower frame area of the flip seat. When a vehicle passenger occupies the flip seat, pushing the seat bottom downward to the horizontal position to sit in the seat, the occupant of the rearward seat could suffer a pinch point injury to their toes and/or foot.
- The fix
- Navistar will notify owners, and dealers will install a safety guard to prevent passengers from placing their toes or feet in the opening on the back of the subject Flip Seats, free of charge. The recall began on November 12, 2013. Owners may contact Navistar 1-800-448-7825 for more information. Navistar's number for this recall is 13511.
